Plan your stay at Gruberhof

Family-run bed and breakfast in Postal, among the vineyards and apple orchards of South Tyrol, with a garden, balconies with mountain views and buffet breakfast included.

Room types

Gruberhof offers two types of Double Room, both designed to provide privacy and comfort in a family-friendly setting. Every room features a private bathroom with hairdryer, courtesy set and shower, plus a flat-screen TV with satellite channels. A balcony is a feature shared by both rooms, with views opening onto the garden, the mountains or the inner courtyard, depending on orientation.

The main difference between the two options concerns size and capacity: the larger room measures 24 square metres and can accommodate up to three people thanks to an additional sofa bed, while the second, at 20 square metres, is designed for a couple with an extra-large double bed. Both share the same simple, bright style, with functional furnishings suited to both short stays and longer stays amid the mountains of South Tyrol.
